2011 was NOT a good year to my family, so farewell to that & on to a new, more promising year! That said there are always things to celebrate, & 2011 was no different in that respect. I had amazing photo sessions with wonderful people, great students at work, and my son prospers daily. That last thing alone is enough to celebrate! Here are a few highlights of those moments. THANKS TO ALL who contributed in making the year easier, and thanks to all my blog readers for your continued support! Happy new year & may God shower endless blessings on each of you all year!

Meet Teak, named for the strength of the wood. He was going to be born with spinal issues that caused the docs to tell his parents to terminate the pregnancy. Obviously they were wrong. He has the issues, but he's doing great! He's one & walking!
